Landforms quiz

A landform is a natural feature of the Earth's surface that is part of the terrain. Mountains, hills, plateaus, and plains are the four major types of landforms. Minor landforms include buttes, canyons, valleys, and basins. Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. Both processes happen over a long period of time. The highest landform on Earth is Mount Everest in Nepal, which measures 8,850 meters (29,035 feet) above sea level. The Mariana Trench is the deepest landform on Earth, located in the South Pacific Ocean at 11,000 meters (36,198 feet) at its deepest².
